Identify square numbers

What are square numbers?

A square number is a number that is produced by multiplying an integer by itself. Examples of square numbers include 4, 9, 16, 25, etc. The smallest square number is 0 since 0 x 0 = 0. The number 1 is also a square number since 1 x 1 = 1.

How to identify square numbers

The easiest way to know if an integer is a square number is to use the square root function on your calculator... If the answer is an integer, then the input is a square number. Interestingly, square numbers always end in the digits 0, 1, 4, 5, 6 or 9. Square numbers are always positive since multiplying two negative numbers together always gives a positive answer.

  • 0 = 0 x 0
  • 1 = 1 x 1
  • 4 = 2 x 2
  • 9 = 3 x 3
  • 16 = 4 x 4
  • 25 = 5 x 5
  • 36 = 6 x 6
  • 49 = 7 x 7
  • 64 = 8 x 8
  • 81 = 9 x 9
  • 100 = 10 x 10
  • 121 = 11 x 11
  • 144 = 12 x 12

Drag the question block to the correct answer box to tidy the play room

In this game we are in a room with lots of toys - and the room needs clearing up - you need to put the play blocks back in the right boxes to tidy the room and win the game...but which is the right box for each block? Well, you can work that out by comparing the question on the block with the math answer on each of the boxes - you should drag the question block into the box whose math answer matches the picture question.

You can listen to the spoken math answer by clicking on the individual boxes. There are 5 blocks to clear up - but if you put them in the wrong boxes, there will be more... Anyway, tidy is good and practicing math is better so start now and see how you get on...

This game reinforces the math you learned or revised in the lesson by asking you to match each question to the correct answer. If you are older you may not like the childish reference to toys, but don't worry - there are other games to play, and who knows - you might like a trip down memory lane?
